I was thinking today that the stuff I used to do way back in the day, with my couponing and blog stuff, that all of the things I did to make money, are the same things I do now. I show up every day and engage with my community. I create and share new content all day, every day.I deliver massive value consistently, without even trying.The only thing I didn’t do back then, that is a part of my non-negotiables now, is daily sales activity. But the sales activity ain’t gonna provide results for you, if you aren’t first creating content, showing up daily, giving value, speaking, engaging, etc.Over time, I grew my lil’ couponing blog to one of the TOP couponing blogs in all of Canada. People talked about me all across social media as being one of the best couponers in the country. News outlets came to my home and filmed me for the newspaper and television. I was THE top expert that everyone wanted to learn from, but not because I was the best couponer in the world.. because I was VISIBLE. I provided damn good value and I provided a lot of it every single day. People followed me because they saw the value I was providing. They trusted me. They liked me. And so they kept coming back for more. I only wish I had practiced sales more back then, ha! All of the stuff that I did back then to make money (the blog regularly generated around $100K cash each year), is the exact same stuff I do now, except I’ve dialed it up A LOT and have incorporated daily sales activity,...

For the last few months, something has felt “off” in my life, and moreso in the last few weeks. I couldn’t really put my finger on what it was until one day I was doing my daily journaling and I asked myself the question “what do I really, REALLY want?”, and just one thing came up:I want freedom. ALL the freedom. And I want to teach other people how to have this freedom, too. I’ve been “free” for many years now, but I don’t think I’ve allowed myself to really turn the dial up and be even MORE free. I guess I thought there was only one level of free or something.. LOL!As I explored this more, another thing came up, and I’m going to share it with you here, straight from my journal:“Readical freedom is always my goal.Freedom to do what I want. Freedom to live where I want.Freedom to say what I want. Freedom to have what I want. Freedom to love who I want.I want to be truly FREE.Free from worry. Free from fear. Free from scarcity. Free from lack.Free from struggle.Free from stress. Free from sacrifice. Free from negativity. Freedom in all ways.I choose to be free and to show others how to be free. A life of total freedom. A life where anything they want is possible, a life where freedom is the only thing they know and are available for. I choose to live my freedom-based lifestyle and to show others what is possible through my experiences. I don’t want to be a business coach anymore. Strategy is boring to me now. I just want to teach being the person necessary to have/do what you want. I...

There’s a REASON that you’re not making as much money as you want to, and why you haven’t been able to GET THERE for so long – And it’s not because you suck at what you do. It’s not because you haven’t made the DECISION to do it. It’s not because you’re not worthy of having it.But it’s because you won’t fucking do the WORK to let it BE. You are so caught up in the day-to-day STUFF that you don’t have a spare second left to BREATHE, let alone up-level your money situation.So here’s what you do: Dedicate at least 30 minutes a day to improving your money. 30 minutes. No less. More is better. During this time, you can: Journal your money affirmations.Track your income/expenses from the previous day.Set money intentions. Deal with any money blocks/resistance. Brainstorm money-making ideas. ACT on said money-making ideas. Do it all, or do a few, but do as much as you can, daily. (Definitely do the ACTION piece every day!)There are SO many freakin’ ways that you can make money. Why are you focusing on just the ONE thing? I know that for me, I can do: DIY Courses/Programs1:1 Private MentorshipIn-Person EventsBook WritingPromoting Others’ Offers (Affilate Income, Yes!)Selling Physical ProductsHigh-Level MastermindsGroup Coaching ProgramsBrand AmbassadorshipRecurring Membership ProgramsOnline WorkshopsNetwork Marketing (if it was aligned)And so on and so forth.. I mean, there are just SO many options. Diversify your income! Try new things. Test things out. Don’t fall into the trap of believing that you can only make a lot of money from 1:1 coaching. This is such BS and is a story you’ve allowed to play out for you. You make a lot of money by doing what...

If you really, truly, leaned in to what the universe is TRYING to tell you, maybe you’d get the answers you’ve been searching for.Maybe you just don’t care.Maybe it’s just not that important to you.Maybe you actually PREFER the struggle and the uphill battle that has been your LIFE. Because what’s working right now is you not being you. You’re showing up as who you want us to think you are. An empty shell of a person.. when we KNOW there is so much more.YOU know there is so much more. So why won’t you let the real you out?Share your dreamsShare your desiresShare your fearsShare your vulnerabilitiesShare with us who you ARE so we can fall in love with YOU. The real you.Have you forgotten who you actually are?Have you forgotten what you came here to do? Let’s be honest.You’ve been slacking. You’ve been hiding. You’ve been shrinking down and trying to escape being seen because.. Well, who knows why! Madness, I tell you! But it’s been happening. You can’t seem to find anything to say.You feel bored with your work.The money is coming in slower than ever. And you just ain’t having as much fun as you used to.Do you remember that?When your days were filled with excitement and joy and BELIEF in what was possible for you?Did you forget that when you first started this dang thing, you did so with the intention to change your life for the better.Did you forget?Did you?This is your wake up call.This is the universe, speaking through me, to you, giving you the loving smackdown that you need, to SHAPE UP. Get back into alignment. Get back into...

(Pictured is me picking tea leaves in Japan. For our matcha company. That I told myself wasn’t viable or wouldn’t work. But that I really wanted to launch. Eventually I just said “fuck it, I’m going for it”, and now here we are.)Maybe the reason that you don’t yet have what you want, is because you don’t actually want it.Maybe your soul is doing it’s work in trying to GUIDE you toward your TRUE desires, and so it is pushing away your false ones. Those things you keep asking for – The certain amount of moneyThe particular type of relationshipThe home in a very specific neighborhoodHave you ever asked yourself WHY you keep asking for these things?Have you ever delved deeply into whether or not you ACTUALLY want them? Maybe they just seemed like cool goals at the time you made them. Maybe someone else achieved them and you thought “that looks fun, I want that”.Whatever the reason, if you haven’t yet received the things you so desperately are seeking, it’s time to do some serious reflection on why you set those goals in the first place. The things you’re asking for now, especially that ONE really big thing you’ve been wanting for awhile now.. maybe it’s not THE thing.Sure, it seems cool and all, and if you had it, you definitely wouldn’t be mad about it.It wouldn’t be bad of course, but it also wouldn’t feel right, and you know it. It would feel as though you were constantly walking around in someone else’s used underwear. Old. Stale. Gross. Unpleasant. Not right at ALL.It’s tempting to go after things that would be ‘okay’...
